Following closure of the window for second half fixture re-arrangements, the Men's and Ladies' Winter League fixtures are now 'final' and no further changes may be made unless in exceptional circumstances notified to the League Secretary and accepted by the County Committee.

Once a team has played its opening match in the second half, its playing order is fixed for the rest of the season. Additional players may still be nominated at the League Secretary's discretion (subject to the usual 'correct order of merit' considerations), however no additional nominations are allowed in team top-5 positions once a team has completed half of its second half fixtures.

Finally a reminder that players in the Men's League who are nominated in their club 1st team top 5 must play at least three second-half fixtures to avoid incurring a 5-point-per-player penalty for their team, unless there are mitigating circumstances (eg injury) notified to the League Secretary and accepted by the County Committee.
